Chancellor (G)
FAV
[P1]
Has returned a much-improved performer since gelding and breathing operations, winning twice (including listed race at Southwell) and only just denied in 2 others starts, notably the Winter Derby at Lingfield latest. Headgear applied for t…

R Havlin | J & T Gosden | 4 | 62.6 kg |

3/1
|
| 1st | 2 | 14 |
Tyrrhenian Sea (G)
Confirmed himself as good as ever despite his advancing years when length second to Chancellor in listed race at Southwell 8 weeks ago, clear of rest. 3 lb better off with winner here.
|
J Mitchell | R Varian | 8 | 61.2 kg |
8.50
15/2
|
| 9th | 3 | 11 |
Witch Hunter (G)
Proved he retains a smart level of ability when winning over C&D in January. Shaped as if amiss last time (subsequently found to have sustained a small wound to right-hind fetlock). Likely to find this too competitive.
|
J P Spencer | R Hannon | 7 | 60.3 kg |
19
18/1
|
| 7th | 4 | 2 |
Popmaster (G)
Likeable 8-y-o at the very top of his game at present, backing up a win over 1m at Kempton with close seconds under this rider there and at Lingfield (neck behind Apiarist).
|
Ashley Lewis | E Walker | 8 | 58.1 kg |
41
40/1
|
| 2nd | 5 | 13 |
Blue Rc (C)
Continues to thrive and gained compensation for an unlucky defeat 3 weeks earlier when landing the odds in good style at Southwell on New Year's Day. Remains of firm interest.
|
H Crouch | J Tate | 4 | 58.1 kg |
5.50
9/2
|
| 12th | 6 | 1 |
Apiarist (G)
Built on the promise of his return when winning at Lingfield (1m) by neck from Popmaster, his fifth career success (4 on all-weather). Respectable third at Kempton (7f) since and return to 1m will suit.
|
K Stott | K A Ryan | 5 | 58.1 kg |
23
22/1
|
| 10th | 7 | 6 |
Storm Star (G)
Improved again to complete a C&D hat-trick in this race last year off 3 lb lower. Shaped as if retaining ability first 2 starts this winter but underperformed in listed race at Southwell 8 weeks ago. Type to bounce back.
|
Jason Watson | A M Balding | 5 | 57.6 kg |
13
12/1
|
| 3rd | 8 | 10 |
The Lost King (G)
Low-mileage 4-y-o who has looked as good as ever on the AW this year, winning 2 of his 3 starts, including when beating subsequent winner First Principle (off level weights) by 1¼ lengths in a useful handicap at Wolverhampton 4 weeks ago. …

Oisin Murphy | A M Balding | 4 | 57.2 kg |

| 8th | 9 | 5 |
Flight Plan (H)
Didn't pull up any trees in 3 handicaps at Meydan in January but made much more of an impact back on these shores when fourth at Lingfield 5 weeks ago, albeit not showing enough to warrant interest in a very competitive event such as this.
|
S H James | K R Burke | 6 | 56.7 kg |

28/1
|
| 11th | 10 | 7 |
First Principle (G)
[T]
Front runner with a steadily progressive profile, good second to The Lost King at Wolverhampton on return before edging out Dosman when going one better over same C&D. Can give another good account.
|
Cieren Fallon | W J Haggas | 4 | 56.7 kg |
13
12/1
|
| 6th | 11 | 9 |
Nikovo (G)
In excellent form and gained due reward when winning 7f handicap for the second consecutive year here last month, overcoming pace bias. Only sixth in this last year off this mark but arrives better than ever.
|
Jason Hart | M Herrington | 7 | 55.3 kg |
29
28/1
|
| 4th | 12 | 12 |
Dosman (G)
Gained reward for what had been a promising start for new connections when winning at Southwell in clear-cut fashion. Just unable to reel in First Principle at Wolverhampton 2 weeks ago and he's not to be underestimated.
|
Jonny Peate | Oli Rix | 5 | 54.9 kg |
19
18/1
|
| 14th | 13 | 3 |
Rogue Encore (G)
[P]
Notched third C&D win in September but down the field in 3 runs since returning from a break in January, albeit caught behind a weakening rival here last week.
|
Hollie Doyle | P W Chapple-Hyam | 5 | 51.7 kg |
51
50/1
|
| 13th | 14 | 4 |
Shafdar (G)
Promising start for new connections since coming from France, building on yard debut when easily landing the odds in a Chelmsford maiden. Good second on handicap bow there next time, unable to reel in his stablemate after a slow start. Has…
